• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Eh...it's still a work in progress....But it's going alright, I think. That is, I haven't seen anything to change my mind yet. Though, I had forgotten that time quickly escapes you when in the Discussion & Debate forums...

Just people listening to their own logic, listening to other teachers before they listen to Bible...until you get to a good verse supporting your point, which they just quash under their own interpretation of the verse (no matter how plan the verse may be in stating the point). A little frustrating, yes, but I don't think anyone has tried to bite my head off...yet.

Btw, nice Garfield comic!

Yeah, I've been in the Liberal debates or whatever that forum is. I don't think I've had any success in convincing others that homosexuality is wrong or that non-believers will not go to heaven when they die. Oh well, I can always keep at it.

Good advice, without a doubt! I try not to say something unless I have scripture (or, when necessary, proof in logic) to back it up.

Hey, HiddenWITNESS! You found your way here! Excellent...now for the next phase of my plan for world domination!... ....or not. So anyway, it is....possible. To be honest, I've had about all the fun I asked for from a 4-day weekend. I'm about ready to go back to school and hang out with you guys.

Yeah, the worst part of breaks: I don't see anybody. Because of the snow, I've had no reason to do anything except sit in front of this corrupting computer all day...unless I'm watching Stargate: Atlantis, which is SO much better for me (sarcasm)...

What?! You already know the answer to that! A resounding yes!

And yes, I remember what you said about my lifestyle, Yamialpha. The other day during school, YA and I got to talkin' about my lifestyle, how my parents never leave school 'till like 7 at the earliest and 9 or 9:30 at the latest because they are working. YA said that if he died and didn't go to heaven, he'd be livin' like that.

Yes he did indeed say that because yes indeed that is the truth. But seriously how can you spend all of that time at skull, then want to go back after just 3 days of not being there? Go outside and enjoy the weather. Read a book. Take a walk. The animal tracks are everywhere in the snow, and its fascinating to see God's creation. You could find benefits from this time off that you'll never receive from school.

True....I was considering taking a walk up and down my road yesterday...and there is still today...I'll do it when my parents come back home. They had to leave for a dentist appointment at about 8:30. They might not want me to go; I've gotten a little cold or something in the past day or so.
